Those wacky pajama people are at it again! They're hunting CNN like a three-legged dear in a man-made clearing, and they think they've got the "liberal media" bastards in their sights! The proof(!)... that a chyron glitch that X'ed out the vice president for about a tenth of a second (you'd think it was up for an hour...) was actually a sinister plot to send a suspiciously subtle, war on terror undermining message to the American people about their vice leader of the free world? A recording of a supposed call to the CNN help desk made by a group calling themselves "an international marketing and consulting company" otherwise known as "Team Hollywood" and obtained by the pajama sleuth Bill Quick of the Daily Pundit (and author of the "SHOCKING CONSPIRACY NOVEL" Inner Circles...!) Hat tip to Wizbang, which also posts an easy-access recording, in which, according to Wizbanger Kevin Aylward:
"The poor schlub answering the phone attempts to engage the caller in a rhetorical argument about whether CNN's placing a large letter "X" over Vice President Dick Cheney during a speech Monday was free speech. ... Getting nowhere with that approach he finally just confesses his true feelings." ... which are that Bush and Cheney are liars ... So according to Quick, the $8, maybe $9 an hour call center guy (whom Aylward refers to as a "CNN minion" -- I'll bet he's not minioning around with Soledad O'Brien in the CNN cafeteria...) speaks for the network, and his poor phone manner is proof of the larger coonspiracy! Here's hoping you sell a lot of copies of that audiobook, Quick old boy.
As for Team Hollywood, they put out a press release accusing CNN of X'ing Cheney intentionally and claiming they've got legions of followers ready to boycott the network at any moment now (by continuing to exclusively watch Fox News, no doubt). Perhaps they should borrow one of those tech experts the PJs used to sleuth the Dan Rather memo story, and have that person explain to them the meaning of the word "key frame..." Update: At least one wingblogger who's been wasting precious hours sleuthing the story now thinks the tapes may not be authentic... the mystery deepens...!!! Uppdate 2: Jessu, Mary and Joseph ... THE Preska of Team Hollywood SPEAKS!!! ... and she says oh no, it's no hoax... Go pajama people ... GO!!! Other PJP's on the case: Michelle Malkin (mostly glitching), Six Meat Buffet (with more suggestions on attractive face coverings for the veep), Junkyard Blog (raining on the pajama parade)...
